Introduction
Product No. | Product Category | Specification |
CRM017C | Dehydrated Culture Medium | 500g/bottle |
Intended Use
For the detection and differentiation of pathogenic Yersinia enterocolitica.
Principle and Interpretation
Peptone provides nitrogen sources, vitamins, and growth factors.Salts maintain osmotic balance; agar acts as the solidifying agent.Inhibitors (supplementary reagents) suppress contaminating flora.Chromogenic substrates react specifically with enzymes produced by pathogenic Yersinia enterocolitica, hydrolyzing the substrate to release chromogens. Pathogenic strains form lavender colonies, while non-pathogenic strains appear metallic blue or are inhibited.
